Content descriptions
General Note: | "Originally published in Spanish as Severina, copyright ℗♭ 2011, Rodrigo Rey Rosa." |
Summary, etc.: | The monotonous life of a male bookseller is shaken by a consummate female book thief named Severina. As though in an obsessive dream with blurred lines between the rational and irrational, the bookseller delves deeper and deeper into the mysterious circumstances that surround this woman and her relationship with her mentor whom she introduces as her grandfather. The seller hopes that somehow a list of the books she steals will help him to understand the enigma of her life. |
